Wolf
Hollow, formally known as the North American
Wolf Foundation was founded in 1988 by Paul C.
Soffron. The president wanted to offer a place where
people could view and learn about wolves, in hopes that
visitors might be inclined to help preserve the species in
the wild.
In the last ten years, Wolf Hollow has welcomed over 250,000
visitors. It has become a very popular place for school field trips,
and the public is always welcome on weekends weather permitting. We
are pleased to say that schools come from all over New England to
participate in this unique educational program.
Wolf
Hollow is fully licensed by the State of Massachusetts and the federal
government as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We support our work
solely through our admission, gift shop sales, adopt-a-wolf program
and donations.
Our pack
of British Colombian timber wolves started with five pups donated by other
facilities in the United States. The original five were from three
different litters so that a family could be started at the facility.
Visitors have the opportunity to view the wolf hollow pack while a one
hour educational lecture is presented. The recommended age for this
program is five years and up. While learning about how the wolf lives in a
family group, its role in nature, its history with man, and the fight
to preserve their species in the wild, visitors observe the wolves
interacting with their pack-mates at close range.
All visitors are invited to howl with the wolves at the
end of each presentation.
